DBS Design Specialist Nathan Schroeder went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. After inspecting the foundation of the home, Nathan recommended installing PowerBrace™ wall support beams to permanently stabilize the failing walls. This home was repaired by DBS Foreman Nick Burley and his production crew.

This Duluth, MN homeowner has a stone foundation that is quite common in the area. Over time the stones have settled, causing the floor of the home's main level to sink. Wanting a permanent solution to this issue, the homeowner reached out to DBS.

A DBS Design Specialist visited the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the support work in the basement. It was determined that the home would have SmartJack® support beams installed to lift and support the sagging ceiling.

A DBS Foreman and production crew installed 3 SmartJack® XL support beams as well as extra framing of wooden support beams in the ceiling to restore the structural support for the rest of the home. 

The homeowner now enjoys a healthy, safe, and supported home!

This homeowner in Duluth, MN had bowing walls in the basement. Over time, this caused an issue with moisture and damaged the basement paneling. After learning about DBS and our wall stabilization service, they reached out to schedule a free, no-obligation estimate. 

DBS Design Specialist Nathan Schroeder visited the home, inspecting both the interior and exterior of the foundation walls. Upon assessing the scope of the wall movement, he designed a plan to permanently stabilize the walls using 6 PowerBrace™ steel I-beams. 

DBS Foundation Repair Foreman Trevor Ingle and his crew installed the PowerBrace™ system. Attaching the vertical supports to the ceiling joists and concrete floor, this system immediately stabilized the walls. Over time, the PowerBrace™ beams can be tightened to restore the wall to its original position.

Cracks had occurred in the walls of this foundation, and over time they grew large enough that water was able to seep through and promote mold growth. Concerned about the wall caving in as well as the health and safety of their home, after being referred by a friend, the homeowner reached out to DBS in hopes of finding a permanent solution.

Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo went out to this Duluth home to conduct a free no-obligation inspection of the issue. Upon completion of a thorough inspection, Henrik informed the homeowner that DBS's PowerBrace™ Wall Bracing System would be the best solution for the cracked walls. DBS was also consulted to install waterproofing materials for this home as well.

Foreman Osia Williams and his crew led the installation for this project. Osia and his team successfully installed 3 PowerBrace™ I-beams that can be tightened over the years to correct cracking in the walls, and even potentially move the wall back to its initial position.

The owners of this home are now able to relax comfortably in their home knowing that their foundation has been permanently stabilized, and the basement is dry and free of additional mold growth or cracking.
